Looking for a job

I'm looking to join the fleet of Cybersecurity Analysts standing at the frontline between vulnerable infrastructure and the threats at large!

What I'm looking for

I'd best fit in a hands-on security role where I can get into the technical work directly, like tightening access controls, hardening network infrastructure, identifying misconfigurations, and mapping potential threat vectors. I’m also good at teaching others.

I have strong technical literacy across software, hardware, and programming fundamentals, allowing me to quickly pick up new tools and integrate them into existing workflows. I'm also experienced with cloud platforms like AWS and Azure, as well as VPS services like Hetzner and Alwaysdata.

I have a solid grounding in Cybersecurity, including access control and role management. Outside of work, I enjoy indie game development, as it's a great way to learn how to debug complex systems.
